They were back where they started; the pond. One of the creatures was doing Rose's work for her. Van Bloot and Rose Dust were hiding behind the trees, watching from a distance.
"You remember the plan, don't you?"
"Every gruesome detail." the human didn't bother trying to hide the fact that she was not happy with what they were about to do, but she knew that doing some of this herself was better than letting Van Bloot have his run with them.
"You never told me your name." Van Bloot reminded her
"Rose Dust." she didn't bother trying to hide it "But everybody calls me 'Dust'".
"Dust is just another word for dirt." Van Bloot tried to flirt with her "A fragile little beauty like yourself should be called 'Rose'."
Rose Dust felt like she was going to throw up, but what happened next didn't help any.
"Is someone there?" the young female in the pond asked as she turned around. Rose Dust didn't want to do it, but she ran to the creature, who mistook what was happening. "Dust, you're alr-"
The female creature was tackled by the human she used to live with. She was now under the water. The female creature tried to get up, but Van Bloot quickly made sure that didn't happen. Rose Dust wanted to take her hands off the female, but Van Bloot's hands over-lapped her own. She looked away as the creature under the water struggled hopelessly. When she could no longer hear the bubbles, Rose Dust knew that the other female was dead.
"See, that wasn't so hard." Van Bloot said casually
But it wasn't a casual thing for Rose Dust. Tears flowed down her cheeks. Her nose stuffed up. Their plan wasn't over. Van Bloot wanted to see her finish off the others, but he was trying to teach her, not torture her.
"Let's put off the rest for another day." he said as he scooped her into his arms "The first time is always difficult."
She didn't bother trying to fight him; she knew Van Bloot was not going to kill her quickly. She would have taken an instant death at the first chance she got, but that was not an option. He carried her back to the cave, not concerned with hiding the body. He wanted to scare the other creatures, and they would probably take it as a sign that Rose Dust was dead as well. Now no one would come looking for her!
Sure, the villagers might be a little upset about the plantation losing a worker, but if things hadn't changed much over the years, it was unlikely that an entire search party would risk their lives over one of them. They weren't considered important enough for that, even in the Overworld.
Van Bloot would give his Rose some time to come to terms with what happened, then bring her back for more. He would make sure to take out all of them next time, and by the time the villagers found out about it, he and Rose Dust would be long gone.
